GROTON, Conn. WTIC Radio)-The fact that Connecticut has a surplus of more than two-hundred thousand cloth masks provided by FEMA reinforces wasteful spending by the state and federal governments, said Groton State Senator Heather Somers.
Her advice, offer the masks to towns. " I'm not sure that was ever done. After literally with ten minutes of texting towns, organizations and non-profits asking could you use the masks, everyone of them said yes," Somers said.
Somers said bus drivers in particular could use the masks.
The Lamont Administration has said anyone desiring the masks should reach out for assistance.
